Bring Back Your Best Smile

Rebuilding Your Oral Health

Most people can avoid the most common dental concerns with daily maintenance like brushing and flossing and by visiting the dentist for routine cleanings. However, those who don’t implement these preventative routines can suffer from cavities and gum disease, which cause permanent harm and threaten their overall smile. The resulting damaged teeth can also be painful, lower self-confidence, and affect their lifestyle.

Complex oral rehabilitation is a restorative treatment that repairs damaged teeth and gums to stop pain and embarrassment. Thanks to Dr. Morgan’s experience, we’re able to provide this treatment to give our patients healthier, more attractive smiles.

Who Needs Oral Rehabilitation?

Anyone with functional dental issues is a good candidate for complex rehabilitation. We usually offer restorative dentistry services for the following conditions:

• Tooth decay
• Damaged teeth
• Yellow, discolored teeth
• Severe toothaches and abscesses
• Gum disease
• Missing teeth

Our Restorative Treatments

All of our restorative treatments start with an evaluation by Dr. Morgan. Depending on his findings and your smile, he may suggest one or more of the following treatments to repair your teeth.

Dental Fillings

Everyone is susceptible to cavities no matter their age. These small holes in the teeth form after bacteria wear down the tooth enamel and enter the tooth. If left untreated, a cavity can lead to tooth pain and eventually cause the tooth to abscess. Dr. Morgan uses tooth-colored, minimally invasive fillings to seal these holes and prevent more bacteria from entering the tooth. These restorations are durable and blend to be nearly invisible.

Root Canal Therapy

Severe infections can spread deep into your teeth, gums, and bones. If this happens, root canal therapy is the procedure used to clean out infected nerve tissues and seal off vulnerable teeth. Because these teeth are rendered non-vital, Dr. Moragn typically recommends a dental crown after this procedure to protect the affected tooth.

Dental Crowns

Tooth decay and trauma can cause severe damage and put teeth at risk of additional breakage. Bacteria can enter teeth through these cracks and holes, leading to cavities and dental abscesses. Dental crowns are restorations that cover the entire tooth, sealing it off and reinforcing the overall structure for everyday use. Dr. Morgan custom plans each crown to ensure the color, shape, and size blend in with the neighboring teeth.

Dental Implants

Missing several teeth can have a severe impact on your overall health. Not only can missing teeth affect the way you speak or eat, but your jaw and facial structure can completely change! This is because your jawbone needs stimulation from the teeth and will begin to deteriorate without it.

Dental implants not only serve as cosmetic restorations by filling gaps in your smile, but they also play a functional role by restoring chewing and speaking abilities. And most notably, Lubbock dental implants fuse with your bone to keep it stimulated and strong. The dental implant process typically requires several visits to complete. However, your new teeth will look and feel natural and can last for a lifetime with the proper care.
